Memorial Day in Small Town U.S.A.

Every year on Memorial Day my Uncle Paul and his wife Sandy have a celebration where the family and friends can come together, have some food, share some quality time and of course pay our respects for those that the day is truly for.I'll quote his words that describe the day:"Some of us neighbors get together and decorate 5 local cemeteries by placing flags on military veteran's graves. The American Legion provides permanent flag holders and we stroll along remembering the folks we used to know and pause to read about those who were here long before us."On Memorial Day we gathered together and shared some good home cooked food, including home made ice cream and cakes, we hung out, we talked, we laughed we even had a parade through the downtown of our small town, just for us. Here's some pics of the cars that were present.Larry's famous rodMemorial Day_20110530_010Memorial Day_20110530_011Memorial Day_20110530_014Memorial Day_20110530_018a couple of the old man's ridesMemorial Day_20110530_021He just picked this beaut up from BobwopMemorial Day_20110530_022And this one as well...Memorial Day_20110530_026Here's his 54 with the factory installed HydromaticMemorial Day_20110530_032My GalaxieMemorial Day_20110530_033Larry's AMemorial Day_20110530_034Dick's ride finally has an interior...and it's Niiiiiiiiice (and I didn't take pics of it.... dammit)Memorial Day_20110530_038Mrs. Povertyflats' 57Memorial Day_20110530_052Wheelie Popper ExtraordinaireMemorial Day_20110530_053Memorial Day_20110530_054Memorial Day_20110530_055Memorial Day_20110530_061Memorial Day_20110530_066
